Glad to hear it was accidental. I killed a copperhead in my yard the other week with the mower. Didn't see it until pieces went flying. I never could find the head, just a piece of the middle. Didn't want the dogs playing with it.

You win! We had two this year (or it may have been the same one twice). This one got loose before we could get him relocated.

In Texas, we have flying beach snakes. Very poisonous and very dangerous. They have to send out armed patrols to control them.

There are only two type of snakes in the world. And they can easily be converted from bad to good... Currently it's a bad snake. Cut it's head off and it will magically become a good snake.
